So I'm imagining a pretty awesome multiplayer game. Lots of depth both in terms of teamwork and mech loadouts. Then I read about the operator. Is this as cool as it sounds? Or are you just the dude there with a sandwich saying, "there's a mech to your right, no, your other right."

It's as you think, and more. I'm going to be writing an article about how Armored Core 5's brilliant gameplay has somehow been swept under the rug and overlooked as only a "niche classic."

Honestly, there's more strategy and meaningful thought put into every action in Armored Core 5 than I've experienced since... .. shit, never.
